I have had them steal meat a number of times but I have never felt I was in immediate danger in those situations. Just use your head and try to stay calm.


Not being worried and going into the woods unprepared as you have stated won’t buy you a pass from a grizzly. Of course there are thousands of people that have shared the woods with grizzlies and never had an encounter.

I don’t care who you are, when you come across this in the woods…


You had better get smart and be worried, because this isn’t bear sign, this is a bear meat locker that means he isn’t far off and he isn’t going to run from you, he is going to run at you and you won’t win that battle….

LOL.

Found a few buried bulls.

Usually a sign of an old mature bear that isn't looking for a fight.

But you keep being afraid. wink


I’d say this Grizz would easily tear your ass open for looking inside his fridge.

He might have to detox, then hit an AA meeting after grubbing on you though.
